This 1892 tavern in Malasaña maintains its original tin ceiling, marble bar, and vermouth barrels. Famous for its tortilla de patatas and Guinness (one of the first places in Spain to serve it), the bar draws a mixed crowd of old-timers and young madrileños.
Order the house vermouth on tap with an olive and salty anchovy, then get a half-ración of the famous thick tortilla.
